This macro connects XWiki to Office365, allowing to display and to search for office documents from OneDrive inside XWiki.
Limitations
- Only Office formats (Word, Excel, Powerpoint) can be embedded. PDF cannot because Office 365 does not provide an embed URL.
- Sharepoint documents can be embedded by URL but not searched.
Macro embed via URL
First, you can embed an Office 365 document by URL. This way of embedding does not require OAuth credentials to connect XWiki. To embed you just need to get the URL that is displayed when you view or edit an Office document on Office 365. An iframe is used to embed. You can also set width and height parameters of the iframe.
Macro embed via Search
You can embed via search. Just insert the office365 macro without any parameter and a search box will show up. You need to set OAuth credentials in the configuration for this to work (see configuration). You search and then choose the document to embed(two links, "change" and "view" are displayed for changing the embed document or viewing the document on Office365).
OneDrive search inside XWiki
Once you have setup the OAuth credentials, you can also extend the XWiki search with OneDrive results using the following steps:
- Activate the search UI extension in the Office 365 configuration in the XWiki administration
- Add the UI Extension point to the SolrSearchMacros page (see installation instructions below)
A box with OneDrive results will be included on the SOLR search screen of XWiki.
How to add the UI Extension For the Solr Search
A UI Extension point needs to be added until XWIKI-14205 is integrated in XWiki.
To add the extension point locate the macro #\displaySearchForm in the page Main.SolrSearchMacros and add the following foreach/end block after it:
#foreach ($extension in $services.uix.getExtensions("org.xwiki.platform.search.widget"))
{{html clean=false}}
$services.rendering.render($extension.execute(), 'xhtml/1.0')
{{/html}}
#end
#if ($text != '')

Extensions can also be installed only on a particular subwiki by global admins. Subwiki admins will not be able to install these extensions due to their limited rights.
